Nice to see AJ Ouellette get a penalty for bringing his Thor hammer onto the field during the TD celebration.

 

so this is an illegal use of a prop... and, rightfully, gets penalized for it... meanwhile, the CFL is promoting it all over their social media... seems kinda odd... I get that it's "fun" and maybe they think that will attract viewers... but this is kind of like promoting a 15 yard penalty because it was a "big hit" or something

100% agree... it makes no sense.

It was a 10 yard penalty and come on, they just went up over 2 scores in the dying minutes of the LDC off a passing play made by a running back, that's worth celebrating. I thought it was fun. Next time, maybe they should just pretend they have a hammer and avoid the penalty.

I honestly hated the play call and the celebration. lol.

the game was over and they're pulling out trick plays.... and then celebrating like they won the Cup? I sincerely hope it comes back and bites 'em in the ass.

Why is this not a back-to-back series?

I appreciated it. Not because it was a gadget play and cool to watch, but because it will make defences have to account for it in future games. DBs won't be able to leave their cover as quickly to come up to the line for Ouellette.

On that specific play. It's one db that would already be out of making the first contact on Ouellette. It provided tape making sure it won't work for the rest of the year. Just bad use of it imo.

Yeah but say you're a DC and you're game planning for a big game vs. the Argos... now you have one more thing to plan for and one more thing the players have to absorb in film study ...and maybe when you play them the Argos run a different kind of play out of that alignment...

(I don't know anything about football, do coaches play the long game like this, selectively exposing concepts to try to influence future games?)
